- Installing a California Air Tools 2.0 hp Compressor Pump on my old 6.25hp Campbell Hausfeld compressor. So far it is a lot quieter than the old one and has no problem filling my tank.
Purchased on Amazon

I did mine today onto my craftsman 25 gallon tank. I did have to add a 12 x 7 plate. It worked great, so glad I saw your video for guidance.
Glad to help :)
thank you for the video, very much appreciated! I am going to try and replace on my 30 gallon. I have the 8 gallon CAL.AIR with same motor and I really like it.
You are welcome. I am still pleasantly surprised at how quite it runs.
Nice video
Thank you
I hear that with Solberg Air Intakes, the compressor sounds more quiet and fills up faster.
I will have to look into those.
the outro is the best thing
Thanks for watching :)
Thanks for the video. I’m doing almost the same thing today.
Thanks for the comment, glad to help
Thanks for the instructions, really helps a lot. ;)
Glad they helped :)
nice job
Thank you.
I just did this to my compressor because the old motor pistons blew up and i did everything correctly to install the new one, now it doesn't turns off when the tank is full, any advices? 😢
Sounds like the pressure switch went out. You can get new ones on amazon.
why you not use flexible hose?
I just used what the compressor was already designed to use. Also it does get hot when the compressor is running.
nice! so it looks like you blocked off one port. are the connecting tubes between the heads solving the need to connect both outputs externally with a T?
Yes, but the connection between the cylinders was already there. You just have to block the one port.
Are you still happy with the CAT pump and motor? I’ve heard of a lot of complaints about their piston rings failing.
I am, it is still running well and still quiet. I will report back if I do have any issues in the future.
A couple questions can the air inlet go on either side left or right? Did it come with the mufflers?
Intake and Exhaust are side specific, they need to be plumbed correctly. I only had to redo it once lol. It comes with the filter/muflers
Capacitor size?
It came with the compressor head, but it is a cbb60 250vac 50/60hz 40/85/21 90uf capacitor
How long does it take to fill up that 28 gallon tank with the new California Air tools motor?
I haven't timed it, but it's way faster than the old one.
@@i2edeye I'm affixing the SP-9421 to a 20 gallon tank in the hopes of using it to paint intermittently. Btw if I remember correctly there's an important component you need to install for CAT motors. I called CAT a while ago and they said all their pumps need an Unloader or else the lifespan will be greatly reduced.
The unit came with a capacitor, not sure what an 'unloader' is?
@@broken_font1881 Looked up the unloader valve, this is located on the inlet of my tank. If you are just using a standalone tank, I think you will need one.
@@i2edeye an unloader is a valve that releases the pressure in the motor's piston once the motor is finished pumping. Unloaders are typically integrated on the pressure switch and are paired up with a one way check valve. If you look up "air compressor unloader valve" you'll find some videos on TH-cam explaining how they work.
capacitor info please?
The capacitor came with the compressor, it can be hooked up either polarity. It is a SeaKnight CBB60
I don't mind buying Chinese made stuff but I will never have anything with the word California on it.
I don't blame you lol
great video, i have a larger compressor that runs on 220v, was thinking about swapping the single compressor motor for two of these.
Thanks. 2 of these would definitely move a lot of air.
